Happened yesterday using windows 10 and MS Edge. I can't close the add. I can use task manager to close edge. When I try to re-open edge the add comes back up. Since MS edge is integral to windows 10 I can't uninstall. Hence my browser is junk.
Yesterday I wasn't quite sure where I got it but suspected something on the creek. Today on a different machine with windows 10 and firefox the same add tried to load but I was able to stop it with firefox.
Let me know if there is some way I can fix MS Edge on my first machine. This will be my last visit to the creek for a while until you get if figured out.

Too bad the admins can't disable ads until they figure out what is going on.. Or at least the likely source of the bad ads.
Guys, when you get one of this strange things use the snip feature of Windows 10 to copy the window and post it here. Make sure you get the address bar.

There was no address bar that I remember. It was a full screen window with a few smaller windows inside it.
Again, I'll get video if it happens.

Disabling our banners is like stopping your paycheck when you are sick. Besides it seems the the issue happens when some people are clicking on forums and posts, not just banner ads.
It is also possible that your browser cashe has picked up a link from somewhere else that is following you here based on keywords. This might be the reason that only small number of people are experiencing the problem. We can what if this one to death but I can tell you that Aaron is spending as much time as he can to solve this issue.

As I mentioned earlier in this post, I got a popup when I clicked on New Posts once about 5 days ago and have had nothing since either on XP or Win 7 with Ie 11 or Firefox.

Actually I'm a contributor and still had it happen. On iOS so unless its related to a tracking cookie its unlikely its related to anything I've done.
